I don't personally own a bamboo rod, but if I did purchase one, the main
reason would be for the feel and casting characteristics. If those aren't
there, it seems to me you could just use a willow branch, no?

You should consider the Orvis Classic Traditional Package.

It comes with a bamboo rod, a silk line, a gut leader, a tweed jacket, a
briar pipe, and a split willow creel.


It doesn't come with a gilley? Sheesh, you might as well be living in
Ethiopia.

The gilley is extra. Way extra. I forgot one other item in the package:
a funny hat.
